So people can vote on whether or not lives should be terminated?

MCrow

Why not? We vote on whether or not to keep the death penalty all the time

Vaughn D

Sounds like you don’t possess a conscience.

MCrow

Because I oppose both?

MCrow

I simply dislike the hypocrisy of people who would vote to keep the death penalty knowing it kills innocents while claiming innocents are being killed by abortion

Vaughn D

Death penalty kills innocents?

Well, I never knew that. It was my impression that people given the death penalty had been convicted of a very serious felony, usually involving the deaths of other people.

Thank you for setting us straight about that. I had no idea the death penalty was for innocents.

MCrow

False convictions happen. Pretty sure your religion has something about a Jewish carpenter who was falsely convicted. But yes, innocent people are later exonerated. Some posthumously.

That is a very rare accurance , and a site more innocents are dead because the death penalty is not in force , and to bring Jesus in to this is just clutching at straws .

MCrow

Innocent people die due to the death penalty. If your religion is to be believed, your savior was one of them. Why keep it around?

ppp777

A hell of a lot more innocent people die due to the death penalty being not in forced , the death of Christ on the cross has nothing whatsoever to do with this subject .

MCrow

So you’re arguing that innocents being killed isn’t that big of a deal? Hmm…

ppp777

Whatt ? , cant you separate [ discern ] the death penalty debate and Christ’s death on the cross , seems you can’t .

MCrow

Innocent people are killed by the death penalty. You’ve admitted it, but stated that it’s better to have. I’m arguing that the notion that innocent life is lost is seemingly an objective of pro-live advocates. You seem to want it both ways, being able to kill people you think are guilty while claiming to be an advocate for life.

ppp777

That makes a lot of sense , oh boy .

ppp777

Going by the votes for sodomites I’m pretty sure how this vote is going to go .
